Faxon Match Series — 16" Flame Fluted® .223 Wylde AR-15 Barrel (Mid-Length Gas)
416R Stainless • 5R Rifling • Flame Fluted® Profile • Nickel Teflon M4 Extension • Nitride Inside & Out
The Faxon Match Series 16" Flame Fluted® .223 Wylde blends eye-catching style with match-grade performance. The Flame Fluted® profile trims forward weight, increases cooling surface area, and adds rigidity to help maintain group consistency during long strings of fire.
Built from 416R stainless steel with 5R button rifling (1:8 twist) and salt bath nitrided inside & out, this barrel resists wear and corrosion while cleaning easily. Each Faxon Match barrel is stress relieved, air-gauge tested, MPI-inspected, and headspace verified. A Nickel Teflon–coated M4 extension enhances lubricity and tightens fit to the receiver for improved consistency.
